Latinas In Progress
The Hispanic Women’s Network of Texas aims to mentor senior high school Latinas throughout their senior year and college journey to equip them with the means to succeed in their personal and professional lives through scholarship opportunities and the Latinas in Progress (LIP) Education Series.
In Houston, we have expanded the program to 9-12 grade students, and offer a holistic approach. By educating our students in additional topics such as mindset, study skills, writing, and communication, in addition to college preparation and admissions processes, we can better prepare them for challenges they may face on their academic and personal journey.
